It seems that the Cruise Control on 2nd Gen CR-V suffers from a glitch. Overheating,low battery voltage or Gremlins seem to make everyone's Cr-V with a cruise control cut out after 40-50 minutes. I have replaced the foot pedal control unit with a new OEM Honda one, but still cuts out after 40 minutes or so. Has anyone found out the definitive solution? I have read that even replacing the control unit and the actuator unit did not solve the problem. Thanks.

 

Ever thought of finding the oem helms repair manual to troubleshoot this instead of throwing money at it?

 

Thanks for the suggestion. I have the Honda OEM manual that I obtained and downloaded from a former Honda Technician. I was just hoping somebody on the Forum had solved this problem before.
Does the Helms manual say anything about Cruise Control troubleshooting?

 

I think I found the problem source. The intake rubber hose at the throttle body had a split under the big clamp. Maybe when I hit a small bump on the road with the cruise control engaged, the split opened just enough to overcome vacuum and turn off the cruise control. I repaired with silicon, but ordered a new one from Honda.
